Can the Lord Stand You?

June 10, 2013

Comments Off on Can the Lord Stand You?

There are six things the Lord hates.
There are seven things he cannot stand:

a proud look,
a lying tongue,
hands that kill innocent people,
a mind that thinks up evil plans,
feet that are quick to do evil,
a witness who lies,
and someone who starts arguments among families

– Proverbs 6:16-19 NCV

One thing I really like about the Proverbs is directly they speak to us. These seven actions are involved with just about any sin we could commit – No wonder the Lord can’t stand them!

How then, can we be certain that our actions will lead to a life full of blessings?

Check out a few of these lists of ways:

  • Matthew 5:3-10
  • Philippians 4:4-9
  • 1 Thessalonians 5:16-22
  • Galatians 5:22-23
